Mr Redmond (78) replied "No, I'm not guilty" when the charges were read over to him at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.
The charges alleged that although an agent or servant of a public body, he received and corruptly accepted "a gift of money" on a date unknown between June 1st, 1987, and May 31st, 1998, as an inducement or reward in relation to the sale of a right of way at Palmerstown, Co Dublin.
The trial is in legal argument before Judge Michael White and is expected to last 14 days.
